British flautist and composer Eliza Marshall joins me to celebrate her new album Eternal Birth — a bold, genre-defying project blending classical, folk and world traditions into a rich cinematic soundscape. Recorded in the UK and Senegal, the album features haunting flutes, whistles, bansuri, spoken word, percussion and electronics, alongside an exceptional cast of world-class and Grammy-winning musicians. Eliza shares stories from her wide-ranging career — from The Lion King and touring with Peter Gabriel to loop pedals, Ranagri, and her project Freedom to Roam — as well as reflections on creativity, risk-taking, re-wilding, and living a deeply connected musical life.
